⚙️ Engine Specifications

Engine Manufacturer:

Cummins (likely, common in this class)

Engine Family:

Cummins QSX15 or equivalent high-displacement diesel (typical for these models).

Emission Technology:

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) with Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection for Tier 4B compliance.

Horsepower Range:

Expected to range from approximately 370 HP to 620 HP across the covered models, depending on specific configuration and model number.

Fuel Type:

Diesel Fuel

Fuel Injection:

Common Rail Injection (likely)

🔧 Transmission

Transmission Type:

CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) or Powershift Transmission (common for high HP tractors).

Transmission Options:

Specific models may offer different transmission configurations.

Transmission Control:

Operator-adjustable settings for optimal performance in various field conditions.

📐 Dimensions

Configuration Types:

Articulated (Steiger), 4-Track (Quadtrac), Rubber Track (Rowtrac).

Operating Weight:

Significant, often exceeding 20,000 lbs, varying by configuration and ballast.

🛡️ Safety Features

Safety Standards:

Adherence to agricultural machinery safety standards (e.g., ISO, ANSI).

Operator Presence System:

Standard feature to prevent unintended movement.

Parking Brake:

Essential safety feature for parking and during maintenance.

Rops:

Roll-Over Protective Structure (standard on all models for operator protection).

Seat Belt:

Mandatory safety restraint.

Lighting And Signaling:

Includes headlights, taillights, turn signals, and beacon (for road transport safety).

💡 Technology Features

Infotainment System:

Cab comfort features may include radio, climate control, and potentially basic display units, but focus is on operational data.

Autosteer Readiness:

High probability of compatibility with Case IH's AFS (Advanced Farming Systems) for autosteer and precision agriculture.

Telemetry:

Likely integrated telematics for remote monitoring of machine health and performance data.

Data Logging:

Onboard systems likely log operational data for analysis and record-keeping.

🔧 Maintenance

Engine Oil Change:

Typically 250-500 hours, depending on operating conditions. Specific intervals detailed in the manual.

Hydraulic Fluid Change:

Refer to manual for interval, often annually or after a set number of operating hours.

Air Filter Replacement:

Based on monitoring of restriction indicator or scheduled replacement intervals.

Engine Oil Type:

CJ-4 or CK-4 API certified diesel engine oil, viscosity grade typically SAE 15W-40 or 10W-30 depending on ambient temperature. Specifics in manual.

Hydraulic Fluid Type:
